After the report had been considered by
the creditors Mr.. Lowell of Boston moved
that the firm of Woodman, True & Co., go
into voluntary insolvency.
Mr.. Clapp amended the motion so that the
firm might increase its offer Of settlement to
the creditors. Another gentleman suggested
that so per cent would be accepted by the
creditors, and thus amended, Mr.. Clapp's
amendment was passed.
Mr.. Nicholson of West Newton, suggested
that an assignee might close out the stock
more adyantageously to the creditors than If
the firm went into voluntary insolvency.
Mr. Verrill of Portland, counsel for the
firm, stated that the firm had already done
what was equivalent to filing voluntary Pc
tition for insolvency. He thought that the
creditors interests would best be preserved
If the firm was permitted to carry out their
plan according to the insolvency laws OF
Maine. He said that the firm could not pay
fifty cents on a dollar, and If that sum was
insisted upon the firm must 90 into insolver-
cy.
The vote was passed by large majority Of
those who held the paper of the firm.

politicians have no more right to
prescribe the pulpit than the pulpit
has to prescribe them. The plain
truth is that a time-serving pulpit
has brought upon itself the disres-
pect and contempt of a goddess world,
and when a preacher reproves them
for their sins, they want to gag him,
and draw up the check-rein. May
the Lord give us more preachers

Sign Your Letters Plainly.

A signature to letter ought to be
a help to the knowledge OF the wri-
ter's name but very often it is not.
Many s man who writes iptelliglbly
at all other times, writes his own
name as if he were striving to con-
ceal his identity; and the average
man who looks at the signature will
say that the writer has so far sue
ceeded in his endeavor. Unless a
man is really ashamed of his name,
he ought to write 1t so it can be read.
If he does write it so that 1t cannot
be read, his friends have reason to
be ashamed of him, even though he
is not ashamed of himself.-&. s..
